Little Helpers and Junior Keeper Experience

Join our popular Little Helper and Junior Keeper Experiences for children for a fun-filled time looking after our animals.

We’ll do our best to make sure you have an exciting time, getting up close to our animals and learning all about their daily lives.For 5-9 year olds, we offer the Little Helper Keeper Experience for one hour, with an accompanying adult. Little Helpers help with feeding and preparing enrichment toys for the animals, receive a gift pack, a New Forest Wildlife Park cap and can adopt an animal of their choice for six months.

The Junior Keeper Experience, for 10-15 year olds, takes place over two hours and provides the perfect gift for young animal lovers. Junior Keepers help to prepare food, feed the animals, clean their water trays and equipment and prepare enrichment toys. Junior Keepers also receive a gift pack, a choice of either a New Forest Wildlife Park cap or T-shirt and can adopt an animal of their choice for one year.

Children are accompanied by an experienced keeper at all times and must be accompanied by an adult.
